"The cool 'Sonic Arts' music series at one of the area's coolest gallery/performances spaces, GASP."
The Boston Phoenix, 2008.
GASP attempts to create a space for artistic exchange where artists will explore and propose new possibilities for contemporary practices, a site for collaboration between disciplines and fields in the contemporary cultural landscape. Founded by M. M. Campos-Pons and Neil Leonard.

DUO PANTOMORF consists of Palle Dahlstedt and Per Anders Nilsson. The duo performs exclusively on the Nordmodular G2 with alternate controllers. Despite the fact that Dahlstedt and Nilsson are two of the primary music software wizards in northern Europe (Dahlstedt coding for the Clavia (Nord) company and Nilsson working as music coordinator for ICMC 2002) their sets will be entirely realized on hardware synthesizers. Not to be missed!!!

PALLE DAHLSTEDT (b.1971) is a composer, musician, sound artist and researcher. His music ranges from orchestral works to interactive music installations, from theatre music to electronic improvisations. With a thorough training in composition, piano and harpsichord, and a parallel career as a computer programmer, he is now combining the two as a composer and researcher at the IT University of Göteborg. Dahlstedt is a co-founding lecturer at the Art & Technology program at the Faculty of Applied Information technology, where he has also conducted extensive research in the field of artificial creativity, specializing in creative applications of evolutionary algorithms. In the summer of 2000, Dahlstedt was a guest researcher in art and technology at ATR MIC Research Labs in Kyoto, Japan. He is also working for Clavia, a leading synthesizer manufacturer, developing evolutionary tools for sound design.

PER ANDERS NILSSON performed with Willem Breuker, Anthony Braxton and John Surman. He studied with Jan Garbarek at the School of Music, Göteborg. In the late '80's started working as an electronic musician and undertook lessons with Âke Parmerud and Per Lindgren in Stockholm. In 1993, Nilsson made his solo debut, Random Rhapsody on LJ records, which featured his improvisations with live electronics. Since the late 1990s he worked increasingly as a composer, and in recent years, focused on the computer as an instrument for improvising. Nilsson currently works as a teacher in electroacoustic music composition, and he is also manager for the Lindblad Studio at the Academy of Music and Drama at Göteborg University. He played at several International Computer Music Conferences, including Aarhus, Banff, Thessaloniki, Beijing and Göteborg, and has been committed at GRM, Paris. Per Anders was also music coordinator for ICMC 2002. He runs a free improv group with Sten Sandell (piano) and Raymond Strid (percussion), both international regarded musicians.
